Try that in a court room:
You admit to the judge that you did these crimes and then ask him to forgive you.
The judge is a just judge and so he replies, "You must pay for the crimes you committed."
Then you tell him, "I know I stole and lied, but can't you just forgive me and let it slide. After all, they were just mistakes, and I will never do them again."
The judge replies, "No, you must pay for the crimes you committed."
God is just and perfect and must punish sin. You are either innocent or guilty. To God there is no third option.
